We hope this comic heritage trail for Wrexham helps introduce you to Britain's third-longest ancient monument.Wat's Dyke was built in the early medieval period (most likely between late 7th and 9th centuries AD). Today, it is a fragmentary bank ditch surviving varied states of preservation. When newly built, most designed as continuous construction by Anglo-Saxon kingdom Mercia dominate control...

In this study, the discharge characteristics through drainage gates of Saemangeum tidal dyke were investigated by laboratory experiments, 3D numerical modelling, and field observations. Laboratory experiments conducted using a 1:50 scale model dyke, gate, seabed topography observations used to validate experimental results. From results these we derived diagrams that relate gate water levels in...

This paper reviews the literature on dyking as a mechanism of felsic magma extraction from a source and transport to shallower crustal levels, and review the recent literature suggesting a range of alternative mechanisms of magma migration in hot crustal zones which produce mesoscale pervasive granite sheet intrusions. Recent papers have strongly favoured dyking as the main mechanism controllin...

This study aims at evaluating the geographical influences of rice-based protection dykes on floodwater regimes along main rivers, namely Mekong and Bassac, in Vietnamese Delta (VMD). Specifically, numerous low high have been constructed particularly upper delta’s floodplains to protect double triple rice cropping against annual flooding. For whole deltaic domain, a 1D-quasi-2D hydrodynamic mode...

Neurophysin has been separated into seven distinct protein fractions. One of these components had no hormone-binding activity. The fractions that had hormone-binding activity were similar in amino acid composition: their cystine content was in the range 11.5-14.5%. The major component, neurophysin-M, was distinguished from the protein isolated by van Dyke by the presence of methionine and the a...
